The Perthro Rune Meaning

Perthro is the rune that symbolizes interaction between the free will and external constraints and limitations. It is a rune that makes references to playing a game, in a joyous way. Beyond the limitations of rules of the game, every player is free to play as he wants, according to his skills, his will, and the interaction with the other players.

This runes connection with a game is not coincidental. Midgard can be viewed as the realm in which two major forces are at play for control of the universe. This is exemplified in almost every aspect of the past handed down to us. Chess for example, is a vestige of ancient memories, whereas the chess pieces represent the dark jotun and the white gods.

Pertho is also the rune of the memory, the resolution of the problems and the esoteric knowledge. This rune gives to people the access to the nature’s secrets and about the world. It allows distinguishing the precious things, the insignificant things. Pertho has a connection to wyrd, what’s possible, and what can happen. We have the choice to face our fate by getting the best party of the cards which were offered to us or to skip our turn.
